Meeting Scheduling App
This app is a meeting scheduling application to streamline the scheduling process for both the organizer and guest.

Guests can then create events only at times available for the organizer.

Why build this app?
I built this app to be able to use a Google API and to build a basic version of an already popular Saas (Calendly).
What were the challenges and how did I overcome them?
The biggest challenge was to use Google Calendar API and setting up Google Cloud Platform. I overcame this by reading several references and watching related videos.
Another challenge was the timezone implementation. I learned this through videos as well.
The complex database and form validation logic was also challenging, specially when setting weekly schedules.
